How did you hear about your internship?

I was working on the square in Dahlonega, when a customer was telling me about his daughters’ career, and I thought it sounded very interesting. I wrote the name of the company in my notes and for a future career idea after I graduate. A few months later I thought “why should I wait when I could possibly get my foot in the door earlier.” I looked to see if there were any intern positions with the company (World 50) and I couldn’t find anything. Instead of giving up, I found an email of someone who worked there and told them about myself and my interest in the company. About a month later I managed to get an interview and they made an intern position for me!

What has been the most valuable (or favorite) part of the experience?

The most Valuable/Favorite part of my internship with World 50 is getting to hear the top executives in the world talk about their personal experiences in their company.

How will this help you in the future?

My internship will help me in the future because it will show how motivated I am. I wasn’t handed this internship; I went after it myself. Whether I stay working with this company and make it my career or if I move to a new company, I will carry all the knowledge I am learning with me!
